"Attack! Attack!"

"Sound the alarm whistle immediately!!"

A sharp, piercing whistle suddenly rang out from every corner, but it didn't last long before a dark figure broke through it at incredible speed, and even the surrounding air seemed to expand because of him.

The guard's pupils contracted as the figure suddenly appeared in the center of the courtyard in the darkness. The figure moved so fast that it was impossible to see clearly. Every time the figure passed by, a guard fell to the ground. At the same time, all the guards who had gathered around him within a fifty-meter radius had their throats slit by something. The blood was indistinguishable in the darkness, appearing only as black and white.

Bloodshed!

Bang bang bang!

The guards fired, but the bullets only hit the air. Steam burst from the man's body, and the ground was broken by his trampling. With each step he took, countless cracks and pits were left behind. The swimming pool was overturned, and the floodwaters flowed to lower ground. In the blink of an eye, the figure rushed into the architecturally beautiful 'Li Mansion' not far away!

Suddenly, someone shouted, "Protect Lord Yuan!"

Then came a loud bang!

The pillars of the mansion suddenly collapsed!

Half of the building crashed to the ground, sending wood and stone fragments flying everywhere, and crushing a large amount of furniture!

Li Yu rushed into the room, almost losing his balance. He grabbed the middle-aged man beside him and said, "Master, it's Chaofan! Chaofan has broken in."

The man sitting in front of him was the real Yuan Lin, but at this moment, he looked incredulous and murmured, "Impossible... This is impossible... I don't believe it."

How did he find me?

"How did they know I was here? That shouldn't be the case, Yuan Lin inside isn't dead yet..."

Li Yu shouted, "Master! Let's retreat!"

Yuan Lin hummed in agreement, grabbed Li Yu's wrist, and the two of them instantly became invisible, disappearing from the room. Only the sound of footsteps echoed on the floor as they ran wildly towards the backyard.

In fact, Yuan Lin could never have imagined this.

His plan should have been flawless. Of course, the deaths of Meng Jingyuan and Wang Fang were indeed a failure for Yuan Lin.

Surprisingly, even with Minister Li's help, they couldn't deal with Qin Che.

But that doesn't matter.

The important question is whether the city council elders want to see him suffer a disaster, or whether he himself is insignificant in this political struggle.

He might be considered a character, but not the protagonist. In the eyes of the men, Yuan Lin will always be a supporting character, or sometimes not even a supporting character, but just a clown.

What Yuan Lin was angry about was actually this.

As for Qin Che, Yuan Lin wasn't indifferent to him; rather, he was unimportant.

—Those who eat meat are despicable.

They will never understand what is primary and what is secondary.

Prioritizing one's own short-term interests, defeating the immediate enemy is more important than anything else, even more important than one's own life.

Over the years, Yuan Lin has sat at the gambling table for so many years, winning against the house many times with his meticulous thinking and impeccable control. Now it's finally his turn to be the house, but... he's going to lose.

In the shadows, Yuan Lin could see Li Yu beside him, and he could see them running forward again and again. Feeling the exhaustion and weakness brought on by running, Yuan Lin suddenly felt that it was not worth it.

Just like that... we lost?

Is it better to just be straightforward and end it all?

Could I have a chat with someone extraordinary?

Thinking about it carefully, it's impossible. Qin Che's goal has always been me. He has the advantage now, so how could he be persuaded by me?

The only option is to go to the Oasis Alliance.

This was originally part of Yuan Lin's plan.

But this also meant he had to give up everything he had gained in Westburg and at Wall Number One, which he was unwilling to do.

Following Li Yu, they jumped down from a low rooftop. Countless guards were running and gathering in the opposite direction from the back gate. Several cars were parked on the street, ready to leave at any time. Given the characteristics of Li Yu's psionic spells, it was impossible for any supernatural being to discover them.

It's safe now.

He can make a comeback.

However, just as Yuan Lin was about to breathe a sigh of relief, a dark figure suddenly appeared from the void, grabbed Li Yu's head with one hand, and snapped it!

With Li Yu's death, Yuan Lin also revealed his form.

Immediately afterwards, he saw countless blades flying in from all directions, spinning, stabbing, and slicing, killing the surrounding guards in the blink of an eye. As blood splattered, the scene before him turned black and white.

Qin Che stood smiling in front of Yuan Lin.

In less than half a minute, the guard force in the backyard was completely wiped out.

Countless blades flew towards him, piercing the weapon sheaths inside his cloak. The blood hadn't even been wiped away; they were neatly arranged in a crossbody bag.

This left Qin Che with a lot of blood on him.

Even though he didn't actually fight entirely by himself, he killed the mortal in front of him with just a dozen or so flying blades.

Heh...like an ant.

"Yuan Lin, do you recognize me?"

Yuan Lin, on the contrary, remained calm and said, "I know him."

"Do you know why you want to die here?"

Yuan Lin had never broken a cold sweat in his life, but today, he was genuinely a little scared. He said, "We can talk. What do you want?"

Qin Che chuckled and paced in front of him: "Li Yu's spiritual energy characteristics are indeed very rare. He can actually shield himself from supernatural beings. After he becomes invisible, there are no traces of spiritual energy flowing on his body. It would be difficult for ordinary supernatural beings to detect him."

"So... how did you find out?"
